To Maria Alexandrovna
Ulyanova in the town of Podolsk, Moscow Province. City Park, dacha No. 3
15/VIII. 99.

I have received, dear Mama, letters from Manyasha and Mitya informing me that my telegram was received and that you have decidedly refused to make the trip*. Have you recovered now? When (and where) is Manyasha leaving? When are you moving to a new apartment or to Moscow? I am sending you today by registered parcel a book which I should have returned long ago. I apologize for the delay. I embrace you warmly and send greetings to all our family.

Your V. U.

Nadya and E. V. send greetings.
